There might be enough nutes in the top dressing to solve the N deficiency, so you might be okay....just keeping an eye on it. You should see the fan leaves getting greener in the next few days.

hey guys, long time no update but im back atleast for now. took a good 3 month break from burning but smoked on saturday out in nature and was sick. think im gunna keep it not too frequent jus cuz of stress/anxiety reasons. getting over it but still kinda wrenching as anyone with the mind disease may know. anyways i may have been takin breaks from bakin but still growin and thats fo sho. check out my babies getting extra big, the second plant is the biggest plant ive ever grown and just doesnt want to go full on into flowering. expecting 1.5 lbs from her atleast (prayers to Jahovia that its not a herm) the one that looks flowering im 99% sure is a female. found a single pollen sack on it tho and pulled that shit off and havnt seen another one since. enjoy my chron

thank you good sir and i definetly agree on the mood enhancing comment. When happy, you become over joyed (blissful) and when sad, you seem to wallow in a pool of self pity, but can frequently be pulled out of that pool by the uplifting feelings of the herb as well and that cant be left unsaid. anyways summer is just around the corner and im sure ill be able to start smoking as much as i please eventually in a summer time enviornment. the time of good herb. peace love happiness, friends.

Hey howzit guys!? So im attempting my first grow outdoors and i need a little advice. Ive got a few plants that ive been vegging for about a month now under 24 hour lights. I want to put my babies outside soon but im not sure if i should just toss them out there or should i change the light cycle on my room down to 18/6 and then put them out there.... + rep for any good advice! Thanks!

Just throw them outside...
I'm curious why you go 24 hours on the vegetation cycle?
Respiration occurs during the dark hours(taking in oxygen, putting out CO2) and that is how plants metabolize the energy they created with photosynthesis when the lights are on, ( taking in CO2, Oxygen out)
Plants need to rest for a reason...

I veg indoors under 18/6 until my plants reach a desired height (18" to 20") and then they go outside to flower, The photoperiod in Hawaii is perfect for flowering year round. Youll see smaller yields during our short season due to the reduction in daylight hours, otherwise anytime is good to flower. Concerning your veg station you can experiment with the photoperiod, if you pay close enough attention your plants they will tell what photoperiod they like best. 18/6 has been perfect for me so far.

I heard 24 hour veg was better but yeah it makes sense that a plant would need time to rest... Plus the cost of running 24 hours a day is huge! fuck man my bill went up like 120 bucks! So can i just switch over to 18/6 right now or should i wait till i toss this batch outside? also can you keep a mother plant under 18/6? Shoots man thanks for the info!

Right on man thanks for the info. So 18/6 is good for seed germination, cloning, vegging, and keeping a mother plant right. I heard that mother plants and clones needed 24 hour light... Im probably a dumb ass for not finding out first but here I am...

What strains are you growing? what kind of soil and nutes will you be using?

Ive got Norther Lights, NY Diesel, THC Bomb, and a few random bag seeds... Using Fox Farm OF and some MG 12-4-8 all purpose plant food for now. The OF is pretty hot though... Ive only fed them twice at less than half strength and they look happy. I just grabbed some Island Supreme (20-20-20) from a friend who said it work well for him during mid veg... What do you recommend?

Right on! Those are some nice strains do you know who breeder of the seeds are? or did you acquire clones? The FFOF is good enough for the veg cycle (if you’re vegging less than a month). Before I used Sub' super soil recipe I had great results with FF's trio (Big Bloom, Grow Big and Tiger Bloom). The problem with MG is it's made out of salt. The salts can build up in the soil that can potentially cause the soil to become acidic causing nutrient lock out. If you use the MG start off with MG for “tomatoes” and use the MG “bloom booster” during flowering. I’d flush the soil at least once a month to combat the salt build up. Also use the MG at a ¼ of what MG recommends and work your way up to a full dose if needed. I’m not too sure about the Island Supreme (20-20-20) how did you plan to use it? With the combination of MG and Island Supreme you might be looking at some burnt plants if you use them together...I’d stick with the MG solution until you can get your hands on some nutes that are for cannabis cultivation.

Im not sure of the breeder but i know they (seeds) came from the Netherlands. I had my buddy send them to me from Cali and he got em from Amsterdam, or so he said. But hes the man so i trust him... Im at a little over a month right now so i just used the MG twice at less than half strength then i gave em straight water in between. I just gave them a shot of the island supreme yesterday at 1/2 strength, so i'll see if i burnt them soon. A few of the tips look a little burnt but its minor. Hmmmm salt huh!?! Well if theres one thing i know about growing anything it's that salt is BAD! lol! Ive heard good things about FF nutes but they are costly for sure. Ive got a buddy who has a bunch of nutes and he was telling me to stop by and he'd hook me up. I think i might have to stop by and take him up on the offer.... Im switching my lights from 24/0 to 20/4 tonight and ill keep them like that for a few days and then ima go down to 18/6 and keep it at that... I want to keep three mothers going for a while and just keep the clones coming.... Let me know if you have any other words of wisdom! Thanks for all the help bro!

harvested the top buds hoping speed up the development of the bottom buds, because i'm short on days. i've grown this strain 3 times and the nugs look identical, and smell identical. It's a reliable strain but i was kinda hoping id get a purple pheno.. Still got 8 fems of KK to go, so not giving up hope yet.
